Natural Science and Engineering Research Laboratory (NSERL)

The Natural Science and Engineering Research Laboratory (NSERL) stands without peer on the UT Dallas campus. The four-story, 192,000-square-foot state-of-the-art facility cost $85 million to build and will be used, in part, to help draw scientists from across the world and from all disciplines to the labs. About one-third of the research laboratory's space is being reserved for that purpose.

Metal-seamed panels jut out from the roofline in undulating fashion along the perimeter and can be seen through the Natural Science and Engineering Research Laboratory’s fritted glass windows.
